Long-term use of beta-blockers in patients with myocardialinfarction and preserved heart function does not significantly change quality of life or well-being compared to no beta-blockers.
The appropriate duration of beta-blocker treatment after a heart attack (a myocardialinfarction [MI]) is unknown in patients who do not need to take beta-blockers for another reason.
Post-Cardiac Injury Syndrome (PCIS) refers to a collective term encompassing post-myocardialinfarction syndrome, post-pericardiotomy syndrome, and post-traumatic pericarditis. Early diagnosis and effective treatment can improve the quality of life and prognosis for PCIS patients.
Abstract Aim Sense of coherence (SOC) allows individuals to be more resilient to adverse life events and it is associated with quality of life (QoL), but its long-term effects are unknown in patients with myocardialinfarction.
The principal clinical manifestation of thrombophilia is venous thromboembolism, which is also markedly linked to arterial thrombosis, including myocardialinfarction. This report presents the case of a young man who suffered an acute myocardialinfarction as a result of thrombophilia.
The prevention and treatment of cardiogenic dementia are essential to improve the quality of life, particularly in the elderly and aging population. This study describes the changes in cognitive function associated with coronary artery disease, myocardialinfarction, heart failure, atrial fibrillation and heart valve disease.
Results Clinical outcomes including mortality at 30 days, perioperative myocardialinfarction, number of grafts, incidence of stroke, rate of further need for revascularisation, and patient-reported quality of life did not differ in CABG guided by functional testing from those guided by traditional angiography.
Identifying new targeted therapeutic approaches has become a priority of biomedical research to improve patient outcomes and quality of life. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) represents the leading cause of mortality and disability all over the world.
and improved patients’ quality of life scores. The intergroup comparison showed the therapeutic effect of the combination was equivalent in HF caused by myocardialInfarction (MI), dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) or Valvular Heart Disease (VHD).ConclusionVericiguat
Patients underwent a comprehensive angiological screening, which included blood serum analysis, assessment of medical and family history, cardiovascular risk, and disease status, and evaluation of lifestyle and quality of life. vs. 53.2%, p = 0.014) and myocardialinfarction (24.7% vs. 45.8%; 17.6% vs. 5.5.%,
Introduction Hypertension is the leading modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease and is implicated in half of all strokes and myocardialinfarctions. One-third of the adults in Scotland have hypertension yet only a quarter of them have their blood pressure (BP) controlled to target (<140/90 mm Hg).
I believe that PlaqueIQ will enable physicians to better ‘see’ the disease—specifically plaque quantity and type—so that we can treat patients with greater precision and in personalized manner, improve their quality of life, and ultimately prevent MI and stroke more effectively.”
Key secondary and exploratory outcomes include improvement in a composite cardiovascular health metric, CR engagement, quality of life, health factors (including low‐density lipoprotein‐cholesterol, hemoglobin A1c, weight, diet, smoking cessation, blood pressure), and psychosocial factors.
Answer: This is MINOCA -- MyocardialInfarction with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries. Comprehensive coronary evaluation (with testing for vasospasm and microvascular dysfunction) was shown in the randomized trial CorMicA to significantly improve angina, quality of life, and diagnostic accuracy.
These methods only alleviate symptoms of heart failure and myocardial ischemia and improve patients' quality of life by partially restoring myocardial reperfusion. The main content of this paper is to explore the application of stem cells and gene technology in the treatment of myocardialinfarction (MI).
Objective In the COVERT-MI randomised placebo-controlled trial, oral administration of high-dose colchicine at the time of reperfusion and for 5 days in acute ST-elevated myocardialinfarction did not reduce infarct size but was associated with a significant increase in left ventricular thrombus (LVT) in comparison to placebo.
Background Insights on the differences in clinical outcomes, quality of life (QoL) and health resource utilisation (HRU) with different levels of care available to post-acute myocardialinfarction (AMI) populations in rural and urban settings are limited.
“Atrial fibrillation doubles the risk of mortality, is one of the most common causes of stroke, increases risks of heart failure, myocardialinfarction, chronic kidney disease and dementia, and results in lower quality of life,” said first author Jean Jacques Noubiap, MD, PhD, a postdoctoral scholar at UCSF with a specialty in global cardiovascular (..)
RWMAs can be an independent indicator of adverse cardiovascular events and death in patients with cardiovascular diseases like myocardialinfarction (MI) and congenital heart disease. It's also associated with high mortality and poor quality of life, and is a substantial burden on healthcare systems globally 2.
MI = MyocardialInfarction/Heart Attack However, there are two very important caveats. Secondly, even with a normal cardiac CT, their risk factor profile will likely impact their quality of life over time. 2023, 2 Coronary CT Angiography and 5-Year Risk of MyocardialInfarction. So a very low chance.
Interruption of beta-blocker treatment in patients with a history of myocardialinfarction (MI) did not reduce risk of cardiovascular events or death, nor did it appear to improve quality of life compared with continuation of treatment.
Cardiogenic shock and acute ST-segment–elevation myocardialinfarction are exclusions. The primary outcome is a hierarchical composite of all-cause death, stroke, spontaneous myocardialinfarction, cardiovascular hospitalization, and periprocedural myocardialinfarction, analyzed using the win ratio.
The primary aim of treating patients with stable angina is to decrease symptoms and improve quality of life. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), a treatment for patients with angina, does not reduce the risk of death from any cause, death from cardiac causes, or myocardialinfarction.1 1 In this issue.
“Atrial fibrillation doubles the risk of mortality, is one of the most common causes of stroke, increases risks of heart failure, myocardialinfarction, chronic kidney disease and dementia, and results in lower quality of life,” said first author Jean Jacques Noubiap, MD, PhD, a postdoctoral scholar at UCSF with a specialty in global cardiovascular (..)
Results from the ABYSS trial surprised many at ESC 2024, finding that patients who continue beta-blocker therapy after heart attacks have better long-term outcomes than patients who stop taking the drugs, and they don’t experience the quality of life downsides that some might expect. vs. 2.5%), and stroke (1% vs. 1%).
Prevention of Opportunistic Infections: Reduced Opportunistic Infections: ART significantly lowers the risk of opportunistic infections, such as pneumonia, tuberculosis, and fungal infections, which can be life-threatening in individuals with compromised immune systems. million lives lost to HIV and an estimated 39.0
What we see today is more myocardialinfarctions that are smaller and that do not damage the heart muscle to the same extent.” The researchers plan to separately analyze outcomes related to quality of life and sexual health.
A rate of 15% of major depressive disorder has been reported in patients after myocardialinfarction or coronary artery bypass grafting, and this rate is >20% in patients with heart failure and is much higher in advanced heart failure.” Indeed, several studies have reported higher rates of depression among people with CVD.
Risk Factors for ED: Heart disease, specifically coronary artery disease (CAD) and acute myocardialinfarction (AMI), is closely linked to male erectile dysfunction. By working closely with healthcare providers, patients can manage both their heart disease and erectile dysfunction, leading to better overall health and quality of life.

Objectives Sex differences occur in atrial fibrillation (AF), including age at first manifestation, pathophysiology, treatment allocation, complication rates and quality of life. However, optimal doses of cardiovascular pharmacotherapy used in women with AF with or without heart failure (HF) are unclear.
What better way to join the fall festivities than by spotlighting key insights in cardiorenal metabolic medicine, primary prevention, and quality of life improvements shared at this year’s biggest U.S. cardiometabolic health CME/CE conference: the 19th Annual CMHC.
